Guestbook comments from the owner

Communication with Manuela - was easy and very responsive. Her and the kitchen was stocked with everything we needed to make dinner and breakfast the next morning which was super sweet. One of the bedrooms had AC which was a must with the 100+ F temps we had while we were there - the rest of the house stayed pretty cool but if you are very sensitive July may not be the month to go. The location as away from the bustle but close enough that you could walk to Amalfi. Overall we had a wonderful time and again the host could have not been more helpful - even dropped off our laundry in town for us and brought it back the next day.

Notes:

Amalfi Coast is known for its beautiful beaches, which are a few metres from the villa, just like the city center. Ravello is 3km away from the villa, while Amalfi is located just a stroll; and there are boat trips that connect the Amalfi Coast with Capri, Positano, Ischia and Salerno. So the location of this exquisite villa is also a very good excuse to explore other sites in Italy. T...his region is probably one of the most beautiful in Italy, and it was declared UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1997. It offers Mediterranean climate, beautiful views of the sea and the cliffs terraced with lemon groves; and today it has become a favorite of jet-setters and couples seeking romance. This exquisite villa in the Amalfi Coast represents exclusive accommodation in a beautiful setting for those who look for a special and unforgettable stay

Sit Back on the Terrace and Enjoy the View

Overall, a great experience. Owners were very accommodating and even provided fixings for breakfast and dinner. As Americans we love our air conditioning and the ones here keep you very cool. The view from the terrace was lovely. Only con is distance to closest town if you don’t have a car. Easy walk to Minori, but returning with packages is all uphill. Finding a taxi to take you the short distance is very expensive.

Amazing Vacation Property & Perfect Location!

We recently stayed at the Star Fish House for 6 amazing days and enjoyed both the house and the location immensley. The property is first rate - more than comfortable and well equipped with all that you need. The location is superb and allows easy access to every beautiful town along the Amalfi Coast. Peter was an outstanding host and arranged parking for us nearby as well as giving is the lowdown on all of the "local" hotspots. We enjoyed Ravello, Amalfi, Minori, Maiori and Positano and Peter's recommendation to dine at the Three Sisters in Positano was the best meal of our vacation. Without a doubt, the Amalfi Coast is one of the most beautiful spots in the world and the Star Fish Hose is the perfect place to use as home base.

A fabulous house. Wonderful owners. Views and comfort.

I loved being at Star Fish House. Spent five weeks in September and early October. Great mornings on the terrace. Best view on the coast. Very comfortable house. The road is no problem. Walk 20 minutes into Amalfi or Minori. Two large lovely bedrooms and great bathrooms. A treat to be there. Jay Parini

Beautiful House and Location

We spent 5 days at the Starfish House. The house and views were absolutely perfect and amazing. Everything was as viewed on the website but more beautiful. Peter arranged a car for us from Naples and back to Naples which was extremely helpful and timely. Peter met us at the house when we arrived and provided us with some local information. There were some food provisions and fresh herbs to make a few meals which created an interest for us to shop and cook some of our meals at the house, which literally had the best view for meal. The house is located between the cities of Amalfi and Minori, each way is about 3/4-1 mile walk which we did multiple times. The walk is beautiful along the coast. There are buses but we enjoyed the walk. The Starfish House will forever be one of the most beautiful locations that we have stayed in all of our travels. Thank you Peter and Manuela for your generous hospitality.

Beautiful villa between Amalfi and Minori with fantastic views.

Star Fish House is a beautiful property, well-maintained, clean, with small details that make it very comfortable and relaxing. The kitchen was well-stocked and Peter made us feel welcome by providing coffee, bread, juice, fruit, pasta, vegetables -- and fresh basil and parsley. The rooms are furnished with nice touches, the beds are comfortable and the bathrooms are adequately sized. Sitting on the terrace at Star Fish House at night is a highlight - Peter has candles available that make for a fantastic setting with the gorgeous views. After two days at the villa, we felt like we'd been there a week -- very relaxed and happy! We also had the benefit of getting to know the two cats that live on the property (the villa is attached to an upstairs home and another villa next door). The wifi connection did not work for us the entire time we were there.

Star Fish House is on the very busy road between Amalfi and Minori. You can walk to both, a little over a mile each way, but you need to be comfortable walking in heavy traffic with no shoulder. Everybody does it, but it's not for the skittish. The nearest beach is .5 miles from the villa, down the traditional Amalfi set of steps. From Amalfi and Minori, you can also access ferries to other ports along the Amalfi coast, in addition to Capri.

Transportation was an issue for us. Although there is a bus stop just down the street from the villa, the buses were always full so they never stopped and we ended up walking. Taxis were impossible to get and if we were lucky enough to find one available, they were way too expensive, and again, we opted for walking. Peter was great at arranging transportation for us to and from the Salerno train station, but that too was not inexpensive. If you don't like to walk, this probably isn't a good location for you.
